Mourners at the coffin of Genesis Rincon on Friday night at the Community Baptist Church of Love on Broadway in Paterson. She is to be laid to rest today at the Laurel Grove Cemetery in Totowa.

Less than an hour after authorities announced two additional arrests in the fatal shooting of 12-year-old Genesis Rincon, more than 100 people, some wiping tears from their eyes, lined up on Friday evening at a Paterson church to mourn her at a wake and memorial service.

Jhymiere Moore, 19, appeared in court Friday. He pleaded not guilty to the slaying of 12-year-old Genesis Rincon.

Police have now made three arrests in the case, charging two men — 19-year-old Jhymiere Moore and 21-year-old Jeffery Ellerbee — with murder as the “shooters” and another man with a weapons offense. All three suspects are Paterson residents. Authorities did not rule out making other arrests in the case.

Genesis’ family, meanwhile, sat in the front row of the Baptist Community Church of Love on Broadway, some wearing T-shirts with an image of her smiling face. Mourners walked by an open white coffin where she had been laid to rest, wearing a light blue dress and a golden tiara affixed to her flowing brown hair.

Genesis was gunned down on Saturday before sunset on Rosa Parks Boulevard as she and two other children took turns riding her scooter to a relative’s house after making a run to a grocery store. While authorities have said Genesis and the other children were not the intended targets, they have yet to not identified the potential victims.

Moore, who turned himself into police on Tuesday night accompanied by his mother, pleaded not guilty at a first appearance on Friday morning in Superior Court in Paterson, where his lawyer said he had nothing to do with the crime.

On Friday afternoon, Passaic County Prosecutor Camelia Valdes announced the arrest of Ellerbee and another man, 19-year-old Marshae Anthony, a little less than an hour before the wake.

Anthony was arrested late on Wednesday on weapons offenses, and Ellerbee was arrested on a murder charge late on Thursday, according to Assistant Prosecutor Jason Statuto. He declined to say where they were arrested. He said Moore and Ellerbee have been identified as the shooters, but declined to be more specific.

Genesis’ family said on Thursday that the gunfire that killed her came from a white van occupied by three men. Authorities have declined to say whether the shooters were on foot or in a vehicle.

Statuto would not comment on the prospect of additional arrests but said, “It’s an active investigation. We’re following up leads.”

On Friday night, Paterson Mayor Joey Torres was among the mourners visiting with family during the wake. Torres and other city officials have called for tough anti-crime measures in the wake of Genesis’ death, including the imposition of controversial curfews for high-crime areas.

Genesis’ father, Alexis Rincon, said during the service that the emotional response to his daughter’s death “is something I’ve never seen in my 32 years in Paterson.” Talking about his daughter’s death, he said the city “let me down.” But he quickly told those in attendance that “we are family” and that he has found a purpose in life.

“My purpose is to stop things like this from happening to other people,” he said.

A man who presided over the memorial service told mourners that it was a celebration for Genesis, whom he called an angel, making a reference to her organs being donated to five people.

“Despite what happened to her, she saved the lives of five individuals through organ donation,” he said.

He then encouraged the packed congregation to give the family a round of applause, and attendees gave them a standing ovation.

“That’s what I’m taking about!” the man said. “This is a strong family. Despite what they’ve been through, this family has not given up.”

Moore, dressed in a green jumpsuit, appeared early on Friday in a courtroom packed with Genesis’ family and supporters, many of them wearing white-and-red “Justice for Genesis” caps. Passaic County Sheriff Richard Berdnik also was there.

Shortly after the hearing began, one woman left the courtroom sobbing, followed by others who consoled her. During the four-minute appearance, Moore quietly answered routine questions from a prosecutor.

Harley Breite, Moore’s attorney, said he hoped to argue for his client’s $3 million bail to be reduced, but Superior Court Judge Greta Gooden-Brown said she would schedule the motion for next week. Prosecutors had asked for bail of $2 million to be set for Moore, but a judge increased the amount, Statuto said.

Ellerbee, who is being held in lieu of $2 million bail, is scheduled to have his first court appearance on Tuesday morning in front of Superior Court Judge Marilyn Clark. He was brought on Friday evening to the Passaic County Jail, where Moore and Anthony were already being held, according to jail records.

A person who identified herself as Ellerbee’s mother declined to comment Friday night when reached by phone.

Moore and Ellerbee both have been charged with one count of first-degree murder, one count of second-degree possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose and one count of second-degree unlawful possession of a weapon. They are friends on social media, according to their Facebook pages.
